Water-related disasters can (and usually do) strike without warning, and they’re among the worst things that can happen to a property owner. Water damage is a particularly insidious form of property damage because its effects are so long-lasting. Beyond the immediate damage done by the water intrusion to a building and property, it can cause long-term growth of mold and other contaminants that pose serious health problems.

That’s why for over 90 years, Burnaby residents have called on Malkin Cleaners as one of their go-to water damage restoration companies. No other water damage firm in the area has the same level of experience and dedication to excellence as our team here at Malkin.

No Matter the Water Damage, Malkin Cleaners Can Help!

From minor issues to major property-wide damage, Malkin Cleaners has the tools, the skills, and the technology to do a full site cleanup with an emphasis on protecting and restoring as much of your property as possible.

The Steps Involved in the Restoration Process

Each element of our restoration process has been designed to ensure your home is protected for the long-term. Our full process includes the following:

Analysis

We’ll review your home and determine the source of the water damage, then explain to you how we’ll complete the cleanup and restoration work.

Cleanup

Our specialist cleaners will resolve issues with mold and odour throughout the home. We’ll remove heavily contaminated items and begin the process of removing the water.

Drying

Once our cleanup crew has completed their work, we then dry all areas of the property and complete a further assessment to ensure the structure of the home is safe.

Restoration

Once the home structure is dry and all remnants of moisture have been removed, we then begin our restoration phase. This includes replacing any drywall and insulation that has sustained serious damage and repairing flooring that shows signs of the impact of moisture.

Final assessment

Once we’ve completed the restoration work, we’ll then go over the home with you and conduct a final assessment to determine any lingering issues. Once you and your assigned restoration team have approved the repair work, we then leave you to your fully-restored property.

You’re always able to call our professionals directly if you have a question after your repair has been completed. We’re on-call throughout the day to communicate with clients.

How Does Water Damage Impact Your Health?

Water damage within your Burnaby home requires you to seek emergency water damage restoration assistance due to the potential for significant health challenges. Let’s look at how water damage can threaten the health of those within your home:

Mold

Mold is a clear danger throughout the home but is usually found in areas where moisture has been allowed to settle. Over time, the mold spores can spread throughout your property, causing a number of breathing issues. The danger of mold is multiplied for those that have asthma and other respiratory ailments.

Dangerous bacteria

We know that water can be a breeding ground for bacteria. Even relatively clean drinking water must be filtered to minimize the number of bacteria. Dangerous bacteria can be present in all forms of water but in cases where there’s water damage, your family is in significant danger.

Bacteria can travel from water in lakes and rivers, which then floods your home, allowing the bacteria to settle. Bacteria can also grow in stagnant water. That’s why it’s so important you call our trusted water damage restoration team in Burnaby when you notice flooding within your home.

How Can You Prevent Water Damage in Your Home?

One of the first questions homeowners ask us when they find out just how dangerous water damage can be is: “How can we prevent the damage in the first place?” In cases where your home is already protected, you might be able to prevent water damage in the coming months. Below are several prevention tips you can use to safeguard your property:

Look for the signs of water damage

When water has already entered the property, you should be able to recognize the signs of a problem. By recognizing these signs, you can mitigate some of the damages water may cause. The following are clear signs of a water damage issue within your Burnaby property:

Stains on the walls and ceiling

A musty smell in attics and basements

Sunken ceilings

Higher than normal water bills

If you notice any of these signs within your home, it’s imperative that you call our water damage restoration professionals directly. We can help to assess your property and devise a solution that will protect your home and family for the years to come.

Contact a reputable water damage restoration firm

One of the most common mistakes homeowners make when they experience water damage in their home is they wait several weeks or even months before calling in a professional. This delay can have significant consequences for your property and may lead to further structural weakness throughout the home.

Ensure you call a reputable restoration firm at the first sign of home water damage. Look for companies that offer the following:

Free consultations

Decades of experience in the restoration industry

Clear communication regarding the issue and the solution

A fast emergency response to your home water damage

TESTIMONIALS

Hi Nigel. Just wanted to drop you folks a note and to let you know how happy I am with the job at my place. I was very pleased with both the quality of the work done and especially the responsive and hands on way Ryan managed it all. You have a good man there and I look forward to working with him the next time a pipe bursts and destroys my home! Best regards…

Joe Timlin

I wanted to add that the quality of workmanship, professionalism, timeliness and empathetic behavior of all the staff involved in this project was exemplary. I have never had so little to worry about in a situation where there was so much to be concerned over. Every step was made simple. I would highly recommend Malkin Cleaners as a go-to company for these services. I kept waiting for the ball to drop and it never did.

On that note, I forwarded my own invoices related to our short-term hotel stay, etc., please advise on how I am to move forward with reimbursement.

Thank YOU for your services too. It was an incredible experience all considering!

Hello Nigel,
I had my roof done with Penfolds and they had a little mishap with some tarps. This lead to the need to bring Ryan and his crew in for a little restoration work. I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that not only was the work done to my satisfaction, but Ryan and the on site team conducted themselves very professionally and left our place clean every day despite the ongoing work. I can tell you from experience that it’s a good crew you have there and they took ownership of the job from all angles.
I would appreciate if you could pass this on to the member of your team that worked at my house.

This is my second time using Malkin Cleaners. I arranged a carpet cleaning at my residential condo. They arrived right on time, and the job they did allowed me not to replace my carpet. They cleaned up the pet stains. They saved me money too, because the stains never came back. I don’t know how they did it. I am very happy with the company. I have used other people, and I can say that Malkin Cleaners is top notch.

We were very pleased with Ryan’s crew. They were all very skilled professionals and very clean and tidy work from all of them.
Thnx!

Recently, we had the unfortunate luck to experience a flood in our basement. Although we found the source quickly and stopped the water before it got too far, it still did enough damage to need several inches of new drywall and entirely new flooring throughout.
After calling our insurance company, they gave us the opportunity to choose the restoration company of our choice. It was totally by luck that we came across Malkin Cleaners on line and called them immediately. From that moment on we felt in good hands. Within a half hour project manager Ryan Hebert was on site and the clean up began. Each trade brought in by Ryan was exceptional. There were workers every day, some weekends included, to complete the work and get our home back to normal in a very timely fashion. From start to finish the work was completed in 5 weeks.
Going through a flood is extremely stressful, and we had heard several horrible stories of restoration companies taking months to complete work and having less than quality workers on the jobs. Malkin Cleaners completely restored our faith. We recommend Malkin Cleaners to anyone going through the tragedy of a flood or fire. They will quickly get you back to normal and ease your stress by working side by side with your insurance company to complete the work to your satisfaction. Thank you Ryan and Malkin Cleaners for being there in our time of need. We are truly grateful.
